- Student Travel About Rustic Community Service
We’re excited to present our 2016 Impact Report! Every year (2015, 2014, 2013) we share findings about the impact our programs have on the communities where our students travel.
In 2016, our programs impacted 37,491 lives. That number includes our community partners, international staff, and the students who participated in Rustic programs this year. This year, we also included the results of our first Student Impact Evaluation. The initial findings from this study allow us to quantify (with actual numbers!) what families have told us for years—that our programs impact the students who travel with us.
Take a look at our 2016 Impact Report. If it inspires you, consider supporting one of our projects. After all, it’s Giving Tuesday and every penny counts!
We’ll continue to provide more information about our student impact here in the coming weeks and months.
